Best solution for controling aphids on wintered peppers
Comments (10)Do you have ants? I know first hand in a greenhouse the aphid can be just a symptom of another problem. Placing traps can help I tried a sulfur bomb years ago. DO NOT DO THIS it was a sad site . Thank god my peppers cam around [weeks and weeks later] I hate aphids. Some people dip there plants getting all those arias those SOBs can hide.I would NUKE THE BASTARDS only they would only be replaced by pepper eating cockroaches .Aphid control is an important part of pepper propagation and I for one am always looking for a better way. None last year Knock on wood....See MoreIs there a solution to the shower/tub/window privacy issue?
Comments (19)I will try to find the words to discribe the doors. There was an exterior frame. The side frames had two tracks, one for each panel. Standing in the tub, the furthest track was for the bottom panel, then when the second panel was dropped down, it overlapped the top of the first panel. Each had a drip ledge so no water escaped but into the tub. The frame was alluminium and the panels a very light weight plexiglass. I do not know mechanically how they stayed up, maybe like a window sash, I'll ask hubby.They were light weight and always stayed where placed. When up they looked a bit like a transom window wall to wall above the tub and when down looked like regular sliding shower doors except horizontal rather than vertical. I loved having the tub all open for bathing children and big dogs, lol. We bought them in the early 70's and I have always been curious why they are not available. The patent must be expired. I would buy again in a heart beat! The shower curtain replaced those door. Don't know if this makes any sence at all, so I'll look for a picture....See MoreOur solution to the giant window in our shower.

Comments (4)Another option that *might* work are the high speed systems. Unico is one brand. They use much smaller ducts that can fit inside joists (ducts are about 3" round). They work with a standard compressor, but have a different air handler. They're often used in renovations because there's a lot less cutting involved....See Morebiondanonima (Zone 7a Hudson Valley)
